Chinese New Year is over. No more gorging, sleeping and hongbaos. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted. Didn't go anywhere much this year because my grandfather passed and well.. Although i don't talk much about it. I really do miss him. Now that he's not around, he won't be here to bring stuff over when we're sick. Now that he's not around, our family portrait will be missing a person. We used to celebrate at his house every year, but this year it was celebrated here. The reason is obvious, though no one openly said it. Chinese New Year just isn't the same without him.
I went to my father's friend's house and i've decided that that's the house i want in future. Huge, with a pond, and a swimming pool right outside the window. I want to be rich. WAHAHA. I want to have a helicopter and a yacht. I want to travel the world. I think i'd have to be REALLY REALLY rich. I realized my ambitions have changed as i've MATURED. (: I wanted to be a policeman, then a firefighter, then a film director, then a astronaut, then a lawyer, then a pilot, then a backpacker, then a scriptwriter and now i want to be an archaeologist. Seems kind of fun. But i can't see myself holding a brush and fiddling with dirt when i grow up. It's probably because i've been watching jurrassic park and i keep thinking that i'll dig up dinosaurs in future. That's almost certainly not how it's going to be though. I'll probably be digging at old plates. :/ Whatever i eventually become, i hope and pray its not boring. I'd rather have fun at the expense of wealth. (That's my impractical side talking.)
I've decided to let you be, which is why i've chosen to shut up about it. It's not because i don't care, but it's because i hate to see you so upset about it. Whatever you choose, whatever it may be, i'll respect it. Just make sure you won't regret it.
Back to work then.
